Often it is necessary to extend the concept of matrix invertibility to a wider class of rank-deficient matrices by means of concepts such as generalized inverse or pseudoinverse of a matrix. One of the major applications of the concept of generalized inverse is in solving systems of equations of the form: Ax = b, where matrix A is neither square nor nonsingular. Such a system of equations may not admit any solution or may admit an infinite number of solutions.

Let us assume that , in order to consider a redundant robot, which has large DoF. If is full row rank, namely , we can solve the linear Equation (2) with the generalized inverse matrix as The generalized inverse matrix is defined as a matrix satisfying the following condition [13]: Note that is not unique because the matrix has the null space. Thus, Equation (3) can represent all solutions of the inverse problem of (2). Although the following discussion does not depend on the choice of , we select the pseudo-inverse , one of the generalized inverse matrices, to use for simplicity. In implementation, we can use regularization methods to stabilize numerical calculation of the pseudo-inverse matrices (see discussion in [14] for more detail).

To express the solutions for Equation (107), we introduce a generalized inverse for a singular matrix, which includes a rectangular matrix. Note that the generalized inverse of a matrix is not unique. The Moore–Penrose pseudoinverse is a special case of the generalized inverse, and is determined uniquely. By definition, for the generalized inverse of an arbitrary matrix , we have
